Litmus Test

Q: What do you say when people will say he put his own lawyer on the Supreme Court? That’s definitional, cronyism.

MR. McCLELLAN: I’d say look at her record. As I said, she is someone that he knows well. But look at her record. Her record is one of being a trailblazer for women in the legal profession and a record of being a tough and strong litigator who has represented clients before state and federal courts on a broad range of issues. She is someone who brings the exact kind of experience and qualifications needed on our nation’s highest court, and that’s why the President selected her.

But does she have any horse show experience?
